Proper loading of your motorcycle
is important for several character-
istics of your motorcycle, such as
handling, braking, performance
and safety. Do not carry loosely
packed items that can shift.
Securely pack your heaviest items
close to the center of the motorcy-
cle, and distribute the weight
evenly from side to side. Properly
adjust the suspension for your
load, and check the condition and
pressure of your tires. NEVER
OVERLOAD YOUR MOTORCYCLE.
Make sure the total weight of the
cargo, rider, passenger, and acces-
sories (fairing, saddlebags, etc. if
approved for this model) does not
exceed the maximum load of the
motorcycle. Operation of an over-
loaded motorcycle could cause tire
damage, an accident, or even
injury.

To ensure maximum performance,
long service, and safe operation,
note the following:
Tire air pressure
Always check and adjust the tire
pressure before operating the
motorcycle.
EW000082
w
Tire inflation pressure should be
checked and adjusted when the
temperature of the tire equals the
ambient air temperature. Tire infla-
tion pressure must be adjusted
according to total weight of cargo,
rider, passenger, and accessories
(fairing, saddlebags, etc. if
approved for this model), and vehi-
cle speed.

EAU00794Steering inspection
Periodically inspect the condition
of the steering. Worn out or loose
steering bearings may be danger-
ous. Place a stand under the
engine to raise the front wheel off
the ground. Hold the lower end of
the front forks and try to move
them forward and backward. If any
free play can be felt, ask a Yamaha
dealer to inspect and adjust the
steering. Inspection is easier if the
front wheel is removed.

EAU00862Supporting the motorcycle
Since the Yamaha XV125S has no
centerstand, follow these precau-
tions when removing the front and
rear wheel or performing other
maintenance requiring the motor-
cycle to stand upright.
Front wheel service
To stabilize the rear of the motor-
cycle, either use a motorcycle
stand or place a motorcycle jack
under the frame in front of the rear
wheel to prevent it from moving
from side to side. Then use a
motorcycle stand to elevate the
front wheel off of the ground.Rear wheel service
Use a motorcycle stand or motor-
cycle jack to elevate the motorcycle
so the rear wheel is off the ground.
Alternatively, two jacks can be
placed under the frame or
swingarm.
Check that the motorcycle is in a
stable and level position before
starting any maintenance. A strong
wooden box can be placed under
the engine for added stability.
